Do Hoverboards Explode or Catch Fire?

Make sure you only purchase a UL2272 Certified Hoverboard.

You may have heard horror stories from a few year ago about poorly constructed Hoverboards with dangerous Chinese batteries catching fire while charging or exploding suddenly with no apparent reason. However, this is no longer an issue and every Hoverboard we have sold to date has NEVER been part of any recall for any reason whatsoever. This original controversy is the result of early knock-off brands catching fire due to an overheated battery, which is a result of poor components and construction. Because of this, laws regarding the manufacturing of Hoverboards have become stricter, putting to rest all these safety concerns.

Do not make the mistake of buying a Hoverboard that is not Genuine UL 2272 certified from a competitor, no matter how tempted you are by a low price! Saving a few bucks is not worth the safety risks and fire hazards associated with a discount Hoverboard. When shopping at Official ®Hoverboards.com you can be rest assured that all our Hoverboards meet or exceed all government safety standards and have passed the rigorous UL 2272-certification process.
